Pours clear light yellow with a small white creamy head, diminishing with good lacing. Aroma is average malt (grain, cereal, roasted, meal), light hops (grass), average yeast (sweat) with notes of cooked cabbage and corn. Average duration, light sweetness, moderate acidity and bitterness. Light bodied, sticky texture, average carbonation and bitter finish. jsquire (2123), St. Marys, Ohio, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 28, 2006 On tap at the 06 Great Alaska Beer and Barley Wine Festival. Clear gold beer with a rocky big white head. Light sweet nose. This is a very clean, crisp pilsener. It disappears on the palate leaving only faint hop tracks. Flavors of sublte lemon citrus and buscuit. Very easy drinking beer. dwyerpg (2553), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Aug 23, 2005 Smells a little hoppy and darker than the style indicates (but all silver gulch beers are a little darker). It actually has a faint wheaty taste. An okay for beer for the style, but not the best this brewery has to offer. BeerLimey (1873), California, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Aug 14, 2005 Clear straw appearance. Sweetish slightly caramellized aroma. Dryish light palate, mild sweet caramel hints, fairly dry finish. Braudog (3778), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Jul 17, 2005 Bottle at LaVelle’s Bistro, Fairbanks AK. Yellow with no activity but a soapy head. Also brought a musty soapy character with a bitter sappy twitch. Wrong texture and wrong balance. Cookie dough aroma. aracauna (2418), Georgia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 25, 2005 This was actually pretty tasty, and I wasn’t expecting much. It could have used more hops in the aroma and flavor, but it was surprisingly malty. It was still a full gold in color with a full, lasting head, but had a richer malt than the usual pils. Slightly grassy hop finish. Excellent, lager that actually satisfies. Marc (477), Yokosuka, Japan
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Mar 8, 2005 Damp yeasty bread gives way to white bread, honey, and some light nuts and hay. Soft soft mouthfeel with plenty of lightly toasted malt notes. Finishes very solid with more light malts and some herbs/grass. DarkElf (2681), La Jolla, California, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 1, 2004 Updated: Feb 19, 2005(12 oz bottle) Moderately flavorful pilsener, lightly malty, but with moderately bitter hops for a zesty, crisp, spicy beer. The hops becomes dominant in the finish for a nice hoppy bite. Clean, crisp palate, light to medium bodied. Lightly hoppy nose shows some cardboard. Medium yellow color, but fully clear to let the small carbonation bubbles to rise with clear visibility. Whitish head has average retention, gradually fading to a thin film. Overall, a pretty average American pilsner.
